about how to install the printer
driver, see p.13 “Installing the Soft­ware”.

Note

 The USB 2.0 interface is sup-

ported by Windows 98 SE/Me,
Windows 2000/XP, Mac OS 9.x,
and Mac OS X.

• For Windows 98 SE/Me:
Make sure to install “USB
Printing Support”. If USB 2.0
is used with Windows 98
SE/Me, only a speed equal to
that of USB 1.1 is possible.

•For Macintosh:
Macintosh supports only
USB 1.1. If USB 2.0 is used

Setting Paper on the Bypass
Tray

This section gives instructions for set­ting paper on the bypass tray. Use the
bypass tray to print onto OHP trans­parencies, labels, thick paper, and en­velopes that cannot be loaded in the
paper tray.

Reference

For details about setting paper in
the paper tray, see General Settings
Guide.

Note

 When loading letterhead paper,

pay attention to its orientation. See
“Orientation-Fixed Paper or Two­Sided Paper”, Copy Reference.

 Paper within the following dimen-

sions can be set in the bypass tray:

Important

 When printing using the printer

function, original images are al­ways rotated by 180 degrees (the
orientation of images to be printed
is opposite to that of the copier
function). When printing onto pa­per with specific orientation re­quirements, such as envelopes and
letterheads, make sure to rotate the
paper feed orientation to 180 de­grees.

 Be sure to set the paper size using

the printer driver when printing
data from the computer. The paper
size set using the printer driver has
priority over the one set using the
control panel.

A Open the bypass tray.

 Be sure to set the paper with the

side you want to print facing down
in the bypass tray.

 When loading OHP transparencies

or thick paper in the bypass tray,
make the paper setting using the
control panel or printer driver.

 The number of sheets that can be

loaded in the bypass tray depends
on the paper type.
